Figure 1
The conceptual path diagram is arranged from left to right, showing relationships among technology inputs, knowledge, and innovation outcomes. On the left side, three vertically aligned rectangles are shown. At the top is “Key Enabling Technologies (K E T s)”. Below it is “Know-how (K H)”. At the bottom is “Professional education (W)”. A downward arrow labeled “H 1 b” runs from “Key Enabling Technologies (K E T s)” to “Know-how (K H)”. An upward arrow labeled “H 1 a” runs from “Professional education (W)” to “Know-how (K H)”. From “Know-how (K H)”, a rightward arrow labeled “H 1” points to a rectangle labeled “Innovation potential (P I)”. From “Innovation potential (P I)”, a rightward arrow labeled “H 2” points to “Innovation process (I P)”. From “Innovation process (I P)”, a rightward arrow labeled “H 3” points to “Innovation types (R I)”.Research framework and hypotheses. Source: Authors’ own work
